Letters explained simply
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Confusing mail, made clear. Snap a photo of any bill or official letter and know exactly what it means and what to do next — in calm, plain English.
Got a confusing letter? PlainlyScan makes it make sense.
Snap a photo of any bill, tax notice, insurance letter, or official mail. PlainlyScan explains it in calm, plain English — who it's from, what it really means, whether it's urgent, and exactly what to do next.
Designed for seniors and anyone tired of jargon.
HOW IT WORKS
• Snap a photo of any letter — or pick one from Photos or Files
• PlainlyScan cuts through the jargon and explains what it really says
• See the key facts at a glance: who it's from, what it's about, the amount, and the deadline
• Get one clear next step — like "Pay $42.10 by March 3" or "Nothing — you're all set"
• Warns you when a letter looks like a scam
DO MORE WITH EVERY LETTER
• Add deadlines to your calendar so nothing slips by
• Draft a polite, ready-to-send reply
• File letters into folders
• Share a clear summary with family
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• The photo of your letter never leaves your phone and is never stored
• Personal details — names, Social Security numbers, account numbers, addresses — are removed on your device before anything is sent for explanation
• No account required. No ads. Your information is never sold or shared.
YOUR FIRST 3 LETTERS ARE FREE
Try PlainlyScan with 3 free letters. PlainlyScan Pro ($2.99/month) unlocks unlimited letters. The subscription renews monthly until canceled in your App Store settings.
PlainlyScan provides plain-language explanations only — not legal, medical, financial, or tax advice. Always verify important details against the original letter.
